Sheen accused of assaulting porn star

A porn star who locked herself in the bathroom last month in the midst of a drunken rampage by actor Charlie Sheen at New York's Plaza Hotel said on Monday she will file civil charges against the actor for assault.

Capri Anderson accused the Two and a Half Men star, pictured, of grabbing her around the neck and throwing things at her.

"I never expected that the night would unfold the way it did," Anderson told TV chat show Good Morning America on Monday.

She said she would file a lawsuit in Los Angeles civil court later on Monday for false imprisonment and assault.

In October, Sheen was found by police acting drunk and incoherent in a hotel suite that had broken furniture.

He was taken to a hospital but was not arrested and no criminal charges were filed against him.
